Your little one's sleep doesn't have to be a mystery

All too often, I see products marketed as “the one” product your little one needs to sleep. If you just get this one special product, all of your sleep troubles will be solved. And that could not be more misleading! Yes, use a sound machine so your babe won’t wake up to every sound in […]

I’ve known people who have canceled travel plans because their child’s sleep is such a challenge and they don’t want to risk it getting worse. Or they go on vacation and are miserable the whole time because no one gets any sleep. Does this sound familiar? When I hear people get anxious about traveling with […]

Dream feeding…I had never heard of it until I had my newborn and I was really confused by the concept. Now, as a mom of three and also having a job that’s very much in the baby world, I hear about dream feeding all the time! So let’s talk about the ins and outs of […]

Did the mere title of this post make the hairs on the back of your neck stand straight up? Those who have heard of the four-month sleep regression dread those words.

Raise your hand if you think daylight saving time should just be done away with! (You can’t see me right now, but my hand is raised high.) The good news is that “springing forward” isn’t nearly as brutal as “falling back”; the clock will say 8:00 am when you wake up rather than 7:00 am, […]

When I had my oldest, I had certainly heard of “sleep training,” but the only thing I knew about sleep training was that you had to lay your baby down, walk away, and let them cry until they fell asleep (also known as the Cry-it-Out Method). [Spoiler alert, that’s not the only sleep training method, […]

Most sleep consultants’ journeys start with a baby or toddler who wouldn’t sleep, then you maybe buy a course, or hire a sleep consultant, or do lots of research. Then once you’re finally on the other side, you can’t keep your mouth shut and want to share the same amazing sleep with the world. And […]

When I was first told 3.5 years ago that I should establish a nap and bedtime routine with my baby girl, I was a little overwhelmed. What would we do? What song should we sing? Would this really matter for a newborn? What if we somehow messed it up? So Jason and I chatted through […]

I absolutely love this time of year and the excitement that builds as the holidays draw near, however, there is also a lot of hustle and bustle that can come with it that can prove stressful.
